Fix: Add missing state_name and country_name columns to SQL Server CREATE TABLE schemas

[Copilot]

SQL Server CREATE TABLE statements for cities and states were missing columns already present in the exported JSON data.

What changed?

• Added country_name NVARCHAR(255) NOT NULL after country_code in the states schema
• Added state_name NVARCHAR(255) NOT NULL after state_code in the cities schema
• Added country_name NVARCHAR(255) NOT NULL after country_code in the cities schema

ExportJson.php has always exported these fields (state_name, country_name for cities; country_name for states), so the INSERT statements—which derive columns directly from JSON keys—will populate them correctly without further changes.

Type of Change

• 🐛 Bug/Data fix
• ✨ New data (cities/states/countries)
• 📝 Data update
• 🔧 Infrastructure/Scripts
• 📚 Documentation

Affected Locations

• bin/Commands/ExportSqlServer.php — states and cities schema definitions

Checklist

• Edited JSON files in contributions/ directory
• Omitted id field for new records (auto-assigned)
• Verified data against reliable sources
• Tested locally (optional)

Sources

Notes

The INSERT generation in generateSqlServerInsert() derives column names from array_keys($data[0]), so no changes are needed there — once the schema includes the columns, the JSON-sourced data will fill them automatically.
